Suns win 10th straight as Monty secures the coaching spot in the All-Star game

Chris Paul gave another master class on how to play basketball on the fourth quarter of the 10th straight Phoenix Suns win. The Suns entered the fourth down 91-79 and the San Antonio Spurs had been killing Biyombo and McGee’s drop defense - Lonnie Walker had 22 off the bench mostly on mid-ranges - but Monty went small with Ish Wainright and Chris Paul just took over. The Suns began the fourth quarter with a 17-2 run to take the lead 96-93 and they stayed small the rest of the quarter.

Paul had 6 points and 8 assists in the fourth alone to cap off a 20 points, 8 rebounds and a season high 19 assists.
